Every single time I run the server it crashes the machine. It seems to be clashing with something. At the moment it's unusable.

I've turned everything off possible and I managed to get it to run. However when I turn the server off and then restart the server, it crashes. Octane and Blender run fine it is just the server application that has the issue.

I've tried all the version with the same result.
I'm running a stock HP z820 workstation and a GTX680.

Has anyone had the same problem!

Check that TCP port 5130 is not used by some other software. It may be the reason why OctaneServer exits right after start - if this port is already in use...

It is may interesting if you start server from a command shell CMD to get error messages.

I seem to be out of luck. I've check the port 5130 and it is not in use.

Running from the command line is of no use as it crashes the machine as soon as it runs.

I'll try another machine. :(

I am having the exact same issue.. New machine, fresh install, dedicated rendering rig, windows 8.1, TITAN Black Superclocked.

Gives a message that it can't bind to 5130 "No Error"

Verified nothing is running on port 5130..

Iam getting the message "error binding socket on TCP port 5130; no error," when I start the server. How do I rectify this problem? In blender should octane automatically render when the render mode is set to octane and I hit render? Thanks

I put all my license information in the right pallet but I am not able to render a simple cube with a rgb material. Is there a tutorial for blender to show how one goes about getting the render engine to work in blender?

Hi, you need internet access to start render the first time and you need a real network card.
A wifi card does not work.
Please put your system specs in your post or better put it in your signature.

If the server start without error > http://render.otoy.com/manuals/Blender/?page_id=16
